About

PaSSBot

This app is a stochastic filter bank audio processor for iPad, offering advanced sound manipulation with various filter types and powerful stochastic generators. It allows for precise control over filter parameters and harmonic distribution, ideal for creating complex audio textures.

Highlights
  • Stochastic filter bank audio processor
  • Multiple filter types (Biquad, Ladder, SEM, Resonators)
  • Up to 64 filters in stereo
  • Powerful stochastic generators
  • Individual filter parameter control
  • Harmonic distribution options
  • Precision DSP rendering (<1ms control rate)

PaSSBot is a unique stochastic filter bank audio processor. The desktop VST/AU version of PaSSbot has already arrived in February 2020 and this iOS version is equivalent to the latest version 2.1. PaSSBot filter types are Biquad, StateVariableFilter, Ladder, SEM and Resonators. With behaviors of bandpass, Lo + Hipass, Notch and up to 64 of them in true stereo ! The user can set values of center frequency, gain and resonance of the each filter, which will be then eloborated with powerful stochastic generators ( 4 independent GENs for each filter ) with continuous or discrete probabilistic distributions but also with standard waveforms. One can set each filter parameters individually, but also distribute them in harmonic order, again the harmonic spread ratio can be set by the user or even can be modulated by a GEN. Precision DSP rendering, less than 1milisec. control rate precision. The filters can run continuously or be triggered manually. In that case, each filter will be applied an independent AR envelope with configurable random duration. Important notes : - A recent iPAD model is being recommended and also setting the host buffer size to 128 or higher greatly helps to the CPU needs which also heavily depends on the number of parallel filters being used. - The resonators can be sensitive to input signal level. - The PaSSBot manual can be found at this link. https://www.sonic-lab.com/PaSSBot_files/PassBot_manual.pdf sonicLAB PaSSBot youtube playlist : https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLP0cOkraQHDYUoMG6BETTN1eGm-Kq5z0T

About

Jardineira

Read full description

Concept: The app “Jardineira” will convert incoming singing voice to fine monophonic MIDI data using pitchBend. It works as AUv3 effect. Please check out the following system requirements. System Requirements: 1. AUv3 host which has a flexible capability of MIDI routing (“AUM”, “apeMatrix”, “Loopy Pro”, etc) 2. Headset (Apple’s “EarPods”, for example) 3. 3rd-party instrument that has a functionality of pitchBend. Scheme: Voice in -> Jardineira (MIDI out) -> 3rd-party instrument Usage: One important calibration 1. Adjust Jardineira’s pitchBend range to the same value as the one of destination instrument. There are 9 sliders. 1. “channel” means the output’s MIDI channel 2. “audio out” determines whether the input voice is turned on or off (default: OFF) 3. “pitchbend range” determines Jardineira’s internal pitchbend range 4. “transpose” transposes MIDI note. 5. “input gain” means microphone’s input gain in dB. 6. “latency” : the smaller the value, the worse the analysis. this trade-off is inevitable. 7. “envelope follower” determines whether envelope follower works or not (default: ON) 8. “MIDI CC” determines MIDI control change number. 9. “amount” determines how the envelope follower affects MIDI CC value. Specifications: Available range: C3 - C6

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Jardineira at $2.99 against PaSSBot's $34.99. Jardineira also leads on device support (3 vs 1). PaSSBot's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
